*************

Stobart Group Ltd (LSE: STOB) (trading as Stobart Group) is a large British infrastructure and support services company, with interests in Energy, Rail, Aviation, Investments and Brand Promotion (including Legal Services), through operations in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The company is registered in Guernsey but has its operational head office in Carlisle, Cumbria which it hopes to re-locate to a new, purpose-built building at Carlisle Lake District Airport, where it owns a 150-year lease expiring in 2151.

Stobart Group was formed in 2007 from the merger of the Westbury Property Fund and Eddie Stobart. Since then, it has diversified its interests, and following the sale in 2014 of a 51% stake in its original Eddie Stobart Logistics business, it now concentrates in the biomass energy, railway maintenance and aviation sectors as well as having investments in a property and logistics portfolio. Stobart Group owns the intellectual property rights and trademarks to the brand name ""Eddie Stobart"" and it licences it out to Eddie Stobart Logistics.

Brothers-in-law Andrew Tinkler and William Stobart hold 9.08% and 3.39% respectively of the Stobart Group as of April 2014. Allan Jenkinson holds a further 4.99% of the company as of April 2014. The largest overall shareholder is now the investment management company Invesco who now holds 35.85% of the Stobart Group as of April 2014.

The company is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a former constituent of the FTSE 250 Index. However, unlike most UK public companies, Stobart Group retains its ""Ltd"" status as it is incorporated in Guernsey and not England & Wales or Scotland, which would require it to change its suffix to ""plc"" status.
